rare, but commercially released videos- what do you think? There are three videos I am interested in checking out through amazon.com.
the first is the "3 Chains of Gold" compilation. What do you guys know about this? Give me some details....any good? I heard there's nudity on this video (intrigued!) What about the Gett Off maxi video or the Sexy MF maxi video? I wanna know which one of these three would be worth buying if any. Give me whatever details and opinions you guys got! | |

Out of the three you mention I have 3 Chains O' Gold and Gett Off. I would go for 3 Chains O' Gold if I had to choose to buy just one.
Reason: Mo' funk fo' yo' buck u can bet on that! (ahem, apologies to all you Tony M "lovers" out there) KeithyT Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. | |

*** 'Three Chains O' Gold'---This is a cool video to have!! If you love the 'Symbol'CD,this is a must-have.It attempts to tell the complete story of that album,with thrilling, big-budget music videos for most of the songs...."My Name Is Prince","Sexy MF","Love 2 The 9s","The Morning Papers","The Max","Blue Light","Eye Wanna Melt With U","Sweet Baby","The Continental","Damn U"(I think),"7".There are some dramatic scenes betweeen songs,such as Mayte's father getting killed.Also,some videos have been edited (such as "Sexy MF"),but overall,it is an excellent video with a great story. | |

Thanks for your input guys. I purchased 3 Chains of Gold today. I agree, why focus on one song like the other two compilations, when you can have videos for 7 or 8. Plus female nudity!
he he. | |

Damn, I wish he put out a video like this for Rainbow Children....tells the story, puts the songs in videos....
cool idea. And of course a compilation of various videos from The Gold Experience would kick ass. Or that Crystal Ball videos set he mentioned one time in the past. So many opportunities... However, Prince should probably just put out an outtakes set somewhere along the line without much hub-bub and just focus on the future, because it looks bright. | |

'3 chain o'gold' is great as well. | |

'3 chain o'gold' is great as well. Yeah, the Gett Off video is hot is you really need to see Prince and the NPG rollerskating in the Paisley Parking Lot to "Gangster Glam." ...but the Gett Off video still kicks ass. Let's not forget "Violet the Organ Grinder"...*sizzle* | |

Let's not forget "Violet the Organ Grinder"...*sizzle* can't forget that one! i used to have most of the prince videos (gett off, SOTT, lovesexy etc.) but during my 'wilderness years' outside the prince loop, i got rid of them all!!!! how stupid am i? now i really regret doing that. mainly for the reason i know i'm going to spend money buying them again. | |

the "Violet the Organ Grinder" video is so great! i *love* that song to begin with and OMG i always need a cold shower after watching the video!!
randomduck - i definitely feel your pain. i did the exact same thing as you, got rid of all my prince videos during the years i was out of the prince loop. i could just cry and kick myself when i think about all the videos and interviews and stuff i'd collected over the years and then either erased over or gave away. i had stuff like the 'UTCM' Premiere Party that MTV did, everytime P was on any awards or music program i'd taped it...EVERYTHING i could possibly tape or get a copy of, i had. i'm such a dummy. now i am starting all over again from scratch. | |

Amethyst, anyone like you who lives in MN that close to prince will not get any sympathy from me j/k. seriously, the video i miss the most is SOTT live, and i miss GB the least! | |

I just received and watched my 3 Chains of Gold video today.... well, it was kinda cool. I don't see myself breaking it out to watch it very much, but it's nice to have. A lot of the videos on it were similar to each other. It tells the story of Mayte much better than the album itself, of course. In the end, I think the only great videos from Prince all came from the Diamonds and Pearls album....
Somebody's Somebody is a pretty cool video, as is some of the Gold era videos.... Anybody seen that video collection of Gold Experience era stuff that they aired on VH-1 several years ago? I'd love to cop that. It was kinda fun to watch. They even had videos for Count the Days and The Good Life. | |

JT, i just watched that special the other night...Count the Days was cool...Prince had this thing for covering up his face with sheer scarfs back then. I loved Dolphin, forgot how good that song is. His outfit was very cool, masculine, with cool shades....The Love4oneanother VH1 special came on right after that....'Days of Wild' is some funky shit!! Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

Oh Chris, it was so cool.
It happened in like late 95 or early 96. It was kind of a Prince VH1 special, where Prince and the NPG broke into a VH1 studio where they were currently showing some Madonna video. Prince turned the video off and the next thing I knew they were showing the Dolphin video, and videos for Count the Days and The Good Life amongst other cool stuff. | |

Yes "Dolphin" video was showed on The Artist special which included the Love4ONEANOTHER film. * Brother 9/15 aka CR3 I confused [This message was edited Thu Apr 4 19:05:40 PST 2002 by Christopher] | |
